5.1 Important information on maintenance and service work
Important information for maintenance personnel
Operational readiness and the service life of your wheel loader are heavily dependent on
maintenance.
Daily and weekly service and maintenance work must be carried out by a specifi-
cally trained driver –seeMaintenance plan on page 5-47.
All other maintenance work must be carried out only by the trained and qualified
staff of your sales partner or workshop.
Refer to the maintenance plan for the maintenance work.
• –seeMaintenance plan on page 5-47
Before carrying out service and maintenance work, always make sure:
• that the machine is parked on level and firm ground and that it cannot roll away under
its own weight.
• that the engine is stopped and the ignition key removed.
• that the cable on the negative terminal (-) of the battery is disconnected before starting
welding or repair work on the electrical system!
• that the key is removed if the machine is equipped with the “Battery master switch”
option.
• that the “Safety instructions for maintenance on page 2-10” in this Operator's Manual
are followed!
• that the maintenance and safety instructions in the Operator's Manuals of the attach-
ments are observed.
Do not carry out assembly and maintenance work if the loader unit is raised
and not secured – danger of crushing and injury!
☞ Secure the loader unit with an appropriate prop or support to prevent it from
being lowered unintentionally
☞ Stop the engine and remove the ignition key
☞ Apply the parking brake
